Welcome to the 518 Clubhouse

The capital region’s premier baseball & softball training facility, providing you with a path of development to reach your goals competing at the next level

  • Semi-Private Athlete Training

    Our semi-private athlete training (ages 13+) begins with an initial assessment to collect baseline measurements and evaluate movement, creating a personalized training program tailored to each athlete’s needs and goals. Athletes train in small groups with individualized programs, guided by coaches using VBT technology to track every rep, optimize technique, and drive data-based adjustments for continuous progress and faster results.

  • Hitting Instruction

    Our hitting training offers 30-minute and one-hour private lessons with expert coaches who help players master hitting mechanics and optimize body positioning for success in the batter's box. We also focus on the mental side of the game, developing a consistent hitting approach to transform players into a dominating force at the plate across all levels of play.

  • Pitching Instruction

    Our pitching instruction offers 30-minute and hour-long private or group sessions, focusing on refining mechanics and promoting safe throwing techniques at high velocities. Work with our coaching staff to develop a personalized pitch arsenal and throwing program, ensuring you stay healthy and dominate hitters all season long.

  • Youth Athlete Training

    Our youth athlete training program, designed for ages 8-12, introduces weight room fundamentals by prioritizing quality movement patterns with bodyweight exercises before advancing to light loads in a fun, competitive, and welcoming environment. The primary goal is to foster long-term athletic development, instill a positive outlook on strength training and healthy living, and prepare athletes for heavier loads and advanced movements as they progress in their training journey.

  • Catching Instruction

    Our catching lessons offer 30-minute or 1-hour private sessions with a dedicated catching coach, focusing on mastering quality catching mechanics, enhancing receiving, throwing, and game-calling skills from behind the plate. Through specialized tools and drills, you'll refine receiving techniques to secure more calls, while improving footwork, throwing mechanics, and the mental aspects of controlling the running game.

  • Hitting & Pitching Programs

    Our hitting and pitching programs, offered at specific times throughout the year, provide comprehensive training to enhance your skills, with optional weight room access. Train in small groups multiple days a week under expert coaching, ensuring consistent, high-quality reps to elevate your performance every time you step onto the field.

    Our cage rentals offer flexible 30-minute, 1-hour, and multi-hour options for both individuals and teams, with machine and technology add-ons available to enhance your training experience.

  • Camps

    The 518 Clubhouse offers a variety of camps throughout the year, including specialized skill camps, all-inclusive baseball camps, and fun camps, typically held during school breaks with options for pre-registration or day-of registration.
